add_v to_o this_o that_o the_o inspection_n of_o the_o original_a be_v no_o more_o certain_a way_n of_o interpretation_n of_o scripture_n now_o than_o it_o be_v to_o the_o father_n and_o primitive_a

because_o man_n do_v not_o learn_v their_o doctrine_n from_o scripture_n but_o come_v to_o the_o understanding_n of_o scripture_n with_o preconception_n and_o idea_n of_o doctrine_n of_o their_o own_o and_o then_o no_o wonder_n that_o scripture_n look_v like_a picture_n wherein_o every_o man_n in_o the_o room_n believe_v they_o look_v on_o he_o only_o and_o that_o wheresoever_o he_o stand_v or_o

of_o controversy_n or_o ambiguity_n a_o man_n will_v think_v that_o the_o memorable_a prophecy_n of_o jacob_n that_o the_o sceptre_n shall_v not_o depart_v from_o judah_n till_o shiloh_n come_v
